Texas A & M University-College Station Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Texas A & M University-College Station? Why?

Forrest

The worst thing about Texas A&M is probably the fact that most, not all, but most of the people who go to that school are very conservative and tend to not want to listen to others view points or opinions. I have not found this to be the case with the proffesors but very true with most of the student body.

The worst part about the school are the buildings. They were built awhile ago and have not been updated. No building matches the one next to it and many of the dorms smell like mold. It makes the campus look gross and out of date. Although there are a few beautiful buildings on campus, many are not and it is sort of awkward to to show people around and they obviously dont like what they are looking at. People definitely do not come here for the pretty campus.

Joey

Personally the worst thing about my school, in my opinion, is the fact that school policies are deeply rooted in conservative traditions and change is not readily embraced very well.

Ariel

I feel that the worst thing about my school is that there are so many opportunities for clubs, organizations, and extra curricular activites that it becomes difficult to find the right one for you or to find out about all of them. There are informationals and activities where the student body tries to publisize all the available opportunites, but it is still hard to decide and find out about all of them. I suggest talking to friends and students that have already been attending for at least one year to give you some guidance.

There is little racial diversity among the staff and student population, and very little tolerance towards students of backgrounds other than caucasian.

The worst thing about Texas A&M is the amount of construction going on. Currently the school is trying to re-vamp the campus by 2020, but that means that, for those of us graduating before then, we have to deal with closed roads and walkways, reduced student lounges and dining options, as well as the noises of construction heard all over campus. I'm sure the school will look amazing in 10 years, but until then, students have to deal with the problems caused.

Emily

The unwillingness of most of our students to accept opposing viewpoints from their own. Many students here are very Republican and very Christian and do not accept anyone who does not believe exactly as they do.

Jaclyn

The worst thing about my school is the size. It has an extremely large student body.

Victoria

It's hard to find something wrong with Texas A&M; I only see positive aspects of the school and it's environment. If i had to choose a negative part of my school, I suppose it would be the housing situation for women. While there are plenty of living options off campus, on campus dorms are hard to come by especially as a female freshman.

Anson

I haven't found anything to be wrong with the school so far, but the only tedious thing I find is all the walking because the campus is so large. That problem is my fault because I haven't become acquainted with the transportation system my school provides. Everything else about my campus is great.
